Joe Biden is hiding in his basement, but maybe that's because the rabid-left looters, rioters, and protesters are carrying out his presidential campaign just fine for him.
What else can be concluded but that, given that President Obama has cynically admitted that the civil unrest covering the U.S. is "tailor-made" for electing Joe Biden?
Here's a report from National Review:
Former President Barack Obama told aides this month that the nationwide protests following the death of George Floyd are "a tailor-made moment" to help his former vice president Joe Biden defeat Donald Trump in November.

Wait ... what? Obama sounds like the BLM knucklehead who stated, “Give us what we want or we’ll burn it down.”

If Trump loses the election, the riots will get worse. There is no way they will stop doing it if it works.

Dim areas unsafe, Republican areas safe. Logic is that America can't wait to vote themselves unsafe. I fail to understand.

First rule of Alinsky: "Never let a good crisis go to waste." This one is certainly a crisis.
However, sooner or later, the mob is going to realize that it's Biden who has a racist background, was instrumental in getting the notorious crime bill passed which resulted in so many unreasonably long prison sentences... which President Trump has ameliorated, at least somewhat.
So if the mob is threatening to destroy our Republic because of what they deem as sins of the past 400 years, won't they turn their wrath on Biden's? Shouldn't they be doing that now? Biden's history isn't obscured. Kamala Harris dramatically recounted her complaints. Won't the mobs be like the scorpion riding on the back of the frog?
You know that little parable?
A scorpion asks a frog to carry him on his back across the pond. Frog says, "No, of course i won't!" "But why not," asks the scorpion. "Because," frog says, "you'll sting me and kill me!" "Don't be ridiculous!" scorpion exclaims. "I would never do that, or be so ungrateful."
So frog agrees, and scorpion climbs on frog's back and they set off for the opposite shore. As they approach the shoreline, scorpion plunges his stinger deep into frog's neck. And as frog struggles to reach shore, he plaintively asks why scorpion would kill him after he gave him safe passage across the pond.
"Why, Mr. Frog," said scorpion, "I'm a scorpion, and that's what scorpions do."

The problem for the democrats is that they can't blame any of the troubles on President Trump. The democrats have made it plain thatt they are the ones behind the troubles, including the Chinese virus.
COVID-19 stands for ''Chinese Orchestrated Virus Including Democrats-2019!''

Ordinary people are repulsed by all of this, and want normalcy and order to prevail, not the anarchy, destruction and hate that they see the left displaying continuously.
IMO, this pushes the normal people to vote for someone like Trump, the same way that the violence and destruction of 1968 pushed people to support NIxon. And remember, Nixon won eveh with racist Dem George Wallace taking five southern states that Nixon would normally have won. So, without Wallace, Nixon would have had a really historic landslide in '68. As it was, Noxon won 301 electoral votes, Humphrey 191, and Wallace 46. Add Wallace's 46 to Nixon's 301 and you have 346 to 191. That is an epic landslide.
There will be no significant third party candidate this year.

President Trump needs to rise above the fray at this point in the campaign and let his campaign folks deal with the smarmy press. The press are universally hated. Kick them to the curb. He can without fear acknowledge to the American people that thanks to Covid and this terrorist rioting we have a ways to go to get back to where we were but he needs to pound home that we are economically better prepared for recovery now than we were under Obama Biden and that only Trump and his pro-America, pro-business agenda can help us get back there again. People know this and he said some of this in his Tulsa rally but this constant fight between him and the "fake news" and being drawn into this stupidity is distracting. The press are scum and they will bait him as long as he responds.
We need to hear that even the mentally healthy Biden did not have the track record to bring us back to prosperity. President Trump needs to make clear he in 3 short years did more to correct injustice, help blacks, improve the economy for everyone regardless of race than Biden and Obama did in 8 long years. Stop focusing on what Joe is now but focus on what Joe DIDN'T do for 8 years in the WH and 26 years in the Senate. At this point if Biden just shows up to the debate clothed and washed and smiling like an idiot, it will be lauded by the press as a win the expectations are sooo low for Joe. President Trump needs to run against the image of the healthy Joe with a terrible track record he can beat so that when Joe shows the world what we know he is now, the stark reality will be plain as day.

Except they're not; and obama is an idiot. He didn't even get himself elected, so how does he think his incompetent self can help anyone else. Thanks for the kiss of death though. In this case and for biden, this kiss can have dual deathly consequences.

FTA: ..."Let's not excuse violence, or rationalize it, or participate in it. If we want our criminal justice system, and American society at large, to operate on a higher ethical code, then we have to model that code ourselves," Obama wrote in a Medium post earlier this month."
Please note the conditional statement. Since Obama did not model it we can safely assume he has no interest in it.

This anti-American racist has never been right about anything. However, I do believe that the typical American voter that relies on tv news to be so called informed, is as dumb as a rock, and the election of this clown not once, but twice proves it.

These riots and insurrections might very well lead naive voters to believe that if Trump is replaced by the Deep State in the White House this chaos will abate and everything will go back to normal. Preferably with the Trump record-breaking economic boom restored.
They are sadly mistaken. Once the Left has the American people on the run, disheartened, isolated, and disoriented, they will not tone it down. They will maintain or increase the social and political blackmail and extortion until they have obliterated every shred of this country's greatness. Then the long socialist will find full flower.

It is good to know that everything that O'Bumbler touches becomes rotten and mold infested.

1: It's Obama's belief so you know the opposite is true.
2: That was the original intent of this adolescent tantrum and resulting mayhem.
3: America is not having it. Feral blacks have been alienated, even by their smarter brothers and sisters, and the election will be more of a landslide for Trump than before the COVID-19 hoax and the George Floyd circus further angered us.

Sure, Smidgen. Because everyone just loves being threatened and beaten every time they leave their homes. That is, if their homes are still standing.

Look, if Biden is elected, with his diminishing cognitive abilities Biden will be in no condition to be an competent and effective President or be in charge of the US Strategic Nuclear Force, so whoever Obama selects to be Biden’s Vice-President, and Obama, will actually be running the show in the White House. Trump should make sure that the American people see through that “Chicago Way” style sham.

Well of course he would think this. He tried it though unsuccessfully to get Hillary elected in 2016. But evidently he forgets 1968 and the reaction that American voters had to those particular riots.

If we are to believe that all historical references to prejudice, bigotry, racism and slavery are to be erased and abolished, why aren't BLM demanding the defunding, dissolution, burning, tearing down and eschewing of the Democrat Party?

#18 That was the plan all along.
I resent every tax dollar used to provide SS to protect this person and their wife. Just as much as I resented every day spent on them being in the WH.
